Overdrive to 4th

I just noticed this yeaterday because i was driving through some mean hills in economy setting. but does anyone else have to double clutch going from overdrive to 4th in the 6spd? Or is it a sign of problems to come? or do i just suck at driving?

i miss goin 2nd to 3rd a good bit as well...maybe its just the transmission...it really sucks when your really getting on it....and you miss 3rd...but my motto is... if you cant find it grind it.

i have ground 2-3 many times too, but i have no trouble downshifting to any gears, occasionally i have to keep light pressure on the shift for maybe 1-2 seconds and it will pop right in.
